dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

little does he know I averaged three hours a day doing jackshit for over a year

Same. I see more patients than anyone else in my clinic, but work with a bunch of boomers who spend half the day typing out their medical notes with two fingers, or even worse using text to speech.

I built a bunch of templates in our electronic medical records system so I can finish them in like 30 min. I think the key to working in the modern era is to find a workplace filled with a bunch of hard working incompetent people.

Works out pretty well. Boomers can't admit that you're just better at a job they've been doing for 40 years, so the only alternative is for them to believe you're just working so hard you're going to burn out eventually.

This is wisdom I pass down to the youth as an older millennial.

One of my first jobs was to copy data from one spreadsheet, to another. It blew my mind that nobody else in the company had figured out how to automate that.

I did ~30 minutes of work a day as a part-time employee. When I left, my boss said that I was able to do more work every day, than half the department, and they could never figure out how.

That job taught me a lot about corporate life...

Yeap. We recently upgraded from an electronic medical records system that hadn't been updated since windows 98. During the mandatory education class over the new system I sat next to a 75 year old pediatrician. Watching him during class try to figure things out was like witnessing a 14th century aristocrat try to decipher ancient chaos runes.
